Or full of residual anti-German chauvinism from WW1 (Limburger cheese, liver and onions, etc.)
i hate this stupid fucking system more than anything in the world. a system that benefits nobody, actively harms everybody, could be changed at literally any point in time, YET WE STILL KEEP DOING THIS MADNESS ANYWAY. YEAR AFTER YEAR WE DO THIS STUPID SONG AND DANCE FOR NO GOD DAMN REASON
It’s also over 30 years and not limited to capital spending, unless I’m misunderstanding.
US transit data is out today, and Seattle's Link remains one of the fastest-growing rail systems in the nation, with ridership up 9% in the wake of the extension to Federal Way
Ridership should increase even further at the end of this month when the 1 & 2 lines are connected🧵
It's healthier to wake after sunrise with Standard Time, than to wake in the dark with Daylight Saving Time.
“Diamond cites multiple studies that show the health advantages of permanent Standard Time…” #PALeg #DitchDST www.cbsnews.com/pittsburgh/n...
Daylight is not a scarce resource. There is no need to "save" it.
“Increasing accidents, at least one death, along with a reported r🍇pe” attributed to permanent Daylight Saving Time—on this day in 1974.
You aren’t making points, you are just saying “this would be a huge disruption.” The science is absolutely clear on the benefits of standard time, the opposition to standard time is funded by gas station owners, and it is clear that you are being willfully ignorant about this.
You are trying to will a “disruption” into existence that isn’t there. What’s being disrupted? The time you wake up? By tiny increments from March to June?
It would be substantially less disruptive than what we do twice a year currently.
Here is a study from last month that recommended permanent standard time as a societal intervention to improve adolescent sleep quality.

I don’t think that anyone actually refers to “30 minutes after sunrise” as broad daylight, and I think it’s clear that you are being incurious and obtuse about this topic.
You are talking about a cycle of sunrise and sunset that we literally evolved within, so no, it won’t be. The disruption to sleep cycles comes from shifting the clocks twice a year in order to achieve one economic goal or another. When we tried permanent DST in the past, here were the results.
I live in Washington, you can see as well as I can that the polling on this is not conclusive at all, and you also know that you are lying that it will be “broad daylight outside” at 4 AM under standard time.
You are being willfully ignorant about this topic. The biggest push to make daylight savings time permanent and the opposition to standard time are literally funded by the c-store lobby.
Would you apply the logic in this post to literally anything else?
This is by far your worst opinion. The science is not really contestable at all that DST is bad for human health and safety.
a lot of discussion about how "cosmopolitan" urban dwellers are, but a really underdiscussed trend is the homogenization of culture across *rural* areas of the USA - replacement of once-distinct regional cultures with generic "redneck" accent and culture, regional religions with evanglicalism etc
Oh have I got an Instagram account for you. @engineerkala
No I mean the author of that White House story
WTF is that mcmansionhell?

Turns out lawlessness is not a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0
In situation such as this, it’s usually Ke$ha.
I was just talking with a Freudian guy about this usage. He said basically that because everything is sex in the theoretical territory he works in, there is a different word needed for embodied desire in the sense of hunger.
For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.
These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.

there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true
Oh you don’t have to guess, you just have to pay Intuit! So easy!
I bet the cucumbers suffering in the shade of that leaf feel differently
